forecasting live from moscow twenty four hours a day you're watching r.t. the top story now the democrats control the u.s. senate has shot down a republican a debt ceiling plan spouts off it was passed in the house of representatives the plan put forward by house speaker john boehner would have raised the country's debt ceiling by nine hundred billion dollars one with a similar amount of spending cuts as the clock ticks down to a second over the debt limit is reached business times were hurting unprecedented default crisis which might problem us to lose its top notch credit rating for senate democrat leader harry reid hopes his proposal see a compromise which could keep the government afloat and according to economist that's fraud wolf this plan is one likely to get the green light. less than two

business days away from the worst self-imposed crisis of america's standing in the world and america's credit rating and at least a century it's a fairly emergency situation and we're deep into the eleventh bordering on the trough that our debt reduction plan that president obama has endured at least rhetorically that comes out of harry reid and the democratic majority in the u.s. senate does make massive cuts in spending more than two point five trillion dollars over ten years so more than two hundred fifty billion dollars a year because no increase in revenue at all which was one of the early if i think somewhat unwise demands of the republicans in these negotiations and therefore is possible is actually does more to reduce the deficit and the debt in the united states over the next ten years than the rival republican house plan the cut cap and balance plan and so it's possible that that could be pushed through none of these plans make real efforts to reduce the long term problem of insufficient revenue and
3:03 am
these plans do reduce spending in ways that will be painful and for many communities in the united states transformative but it's worthy of note and somehow hasn't much been mentioned that not a single plan out there reduces the national debt they just change the speed by which it grows a lot of politicians battle it out over who would be to blame if the american economy hits a brick wall so then say from the u.s. space trends journal says the political elite will recognize simple solutions to america's deficit. the country is going bankrupt just look at the numbers the numbers don't lie the politicians lie and let's look at the bigger picture first of all devaluing the dollar and we've been saying that all along gold in the last month has gained a hundred and fifteen dollars an ounce that's what they're not talking about in all this deficit reduction hey how about the military budget how about slashing where r.n.a. does the seven billion dollars a year how would that out companies like general electric then they'd seen billion
3:04 am
dollars last year pay no taxes but there's plenty of room out there to start raining this thing in and turning it around and we do not have a representative form of government we have a government that represents only the very powerful and the very rich and that's all this is about letting them keeping their perks. you can all make as it just has plunging america deeper into crisis so senseless kinds are financially expression thanks to the concert for alternative. the world is adjusting the dollar will lose its status as a world reserve currency the us debt will lose the aaa rating and it's a complete different configuration and washington is not the biggest player in this if they were being managed by somebody knew something about economics and not barack obama who's financially illiterate they would allow the dollar to collapse against other currencies let the economy go through two or three years of
3:05 am
a gut wrenching depression they come out of it and rebuild but keep their sovereignty intact otherwise america will end up like greece losing their sovereignty america will end up like other countries in the euro zone like ireland that's lost its sovereignty to the i.m.f. in these other banking institutions i think most americans would prefer to be sovereign and free than to be a vassal state of international bankers. but it will be a second deadline for raising the debt ceiling in the us is rapidly approaching and is still the solution on the horizon rig oftenest take a resident to the streets of new york to find out whether americans feel a financial apocalypse is around the corner. with the looming debt crisis the u.s. is watching the clock tick down to an economic armageddon what does that even mean this week let's talk about that they keep setting dates over and over again and nothing happened just part of the negotiation process so it's i don't fret. i
3:06 am
believe so do you expect more from the people you like. neither party is going to let this actually happen where they would let it expire and then the united states would go into default i don't think that's going to happen i think that's a bluff but i think what actually is at hand is for real in there they're using it as leverage to push their respective issues but i think americans if i'm speaking for myself as an american are sick of it or they don't represent the reports that they think that they were representing but i don't i think they keep on saying the american people want this market where does. anybody really what they really want what you want i would like to compromise right now the drama right now is largely contrived there is a debt crisis but we'll make it through it and you know we'll pay the bills and things will be fine so all this drama i think is just making people crazy why are they doing that now i mean we raise the debt ceiling every year why is this drama unfolding right now well it's largely political because the upcoming election you
3:07 am
know it's a good thing it's finally happening i think that people are speaking up. and hopefully will get our way but sometimes it takes a while to bed things really are i mean nobody is giving any ground i've seen no you log before for many many years and this is absolutely truly amazing and makes me wonder how they ever get anything done in israel or in italy or any place where they have multi parties to portage to an airport if you include the two guys and we can't get anything done it's utterly embarrass amish will be ashamed of themselves no matter what happens with the u.s. debt crisis the bottom line is we're. a lot more posturing and all the politicians involved it's. also become a programme about lifting expectations flying around plane in russia just easier p.c.'s to welcome the first steps to free the country small aircraft and i think
3:08 am
the prescriptions and endless paperwork. also more than a year has passed since the indian government gave all children the right to free education has helped to bridge essential to fight. tens of thousands of protesters gathered in egypt's tahrir square for one of the biggest rallies since president barak was overthrown five months ago the largest group in attendance for ultra conservative muslims calling for the introduction of sharia law journalist and blogger austin mackell who's in cairo says the arab spring has produced a strong and divisive is the most. units yet it was assigned a liberal islam as forces are going to come together to continue their. basic democratic rights down in the square i was just before i came here is a huge number of. brotherhood members the most islamic countries where has.
3:09 am
the time that i've been and they many chance of. islamic identity and this islamic nature of egypt which has caused some friction. for secular forces who are normally it is if you look also dominate into look they're the ones who run the will be running a sit in there for a month since the clashes that happened at the end of june but today. well a show rest is also taking place in neighboring israel thousands of young protest camps across the country since one for social justice or some discontent of government policy and a mass rallies planned for saturday just as many journalists are israelis edging closer to revolution two thirds of the poor in israel are working poor people who are working every day people who have a great jobs and still are not able to go above the poverty level so that's
3:10 am
a reason that people are coming out of the street if you look at how the protesters started it's almost identical to how it started in egypt and in tunisia and other places started through facebook somebody who made a post on facebook through social media about how people organize or was organized completely in the beginning by the young people in israel students people who feel that they have no future people who feel who can't afford living here in italy as realizing that this is not the way to go forward and he's trying to figure out ways to deal with it because the government could definitely fold its role and these are ground and i think it is in danger especially that across this there is a growing while israel has been under building in tel aviv in haifa in all these major cities in israel is all have been overbuilding in the west bank focus of the israeli government at the moment is more sustaining acute patient more sustaining the settlement rather than caring for the majority of the population who actually oppose the lens and oppose patient and israel proper so that the problem here
3:11 am
though is that still many israelis have not been able to make the connection to the more and the sooner israelis need to finish to realise that the education affects their daily life affects the pennies that the government spending the money the government spending in the west bank verses and does well i think you will see a real revolution in israel. more than a year has passed since the indian government announced the unprecedented rights to education act there was aimed at stamping out in literacy and battling the country's social economic divide the concept was to provide compulsory and free education for all children aged six to fourteen resulting is a preassure discovered reform is facing tough challenges. it's gone in india's capital city of new delhi an eight year old cushy just getting ready for school while there are nearly two hundred million elementary school children like cushy in india only half that number ever complete the eighth grade most end up leaving
3:12 am
school to help their parents with domestic work or to get a job to bring in some extra money made by having studied much that's why i want to educate my children after growing pressure to address the educational disparities in india the government passed an act making it mandatory for all children between the ages of six and fourteen to get a free education even requires elite private schools with tuitions nearing five hundred dollars per month to grant a quarter of their seats to students from disadvantaged backgrounds like cushing. hall and long. today there are just as many schools where students have to pay a choice unlike this one as there are great schools that are funded by the government according to the act it's something that parents to decide where they lend their names to school i mean this very like question can attend an elite
3:13 am
private school if they enter that when it's a lottery and gets into the twenty five percent quota it also means that if government workers are able to identify and successfully enroll this is cool but aren't attending schools like the ones pushing its hands now could get overcrowded but the idea of free schooling in india has its opponents with concerns even raised by proponents of the act free schools have no art assaulted and quality and i think poor parents are much smarter than that. and they want to be and quality is something that the principal of cushy school knows has a different definition depending on the school while the teachers want to see their students succeed they believe that integrating indian children from a lower class into. a private school would not be practical. these elite schools have a very high standard only children whose parents are educated can study in schools like these schools want to maintain their high standards and reputation how can
3:14 am
poor people send their children to schools like these because their parents are an educators even at home there is no the tutor or supervise their studies or homework it's a position supported by the well off members of indian society the schools are not meant for them. it's meant for the people who are close people who go over there so they get an elected in the sense that he comes from a background his parents are probably labelled as a whatever they're. putting him in that sort of thing into i mean so he would have trouble getting assimilated in spite of the mix for sachin the integration model received for children like cushy education is simply about accomplishing her dreams i want to study to twelfth grade ten become a teacher. but it's a dream the majors fall through the gap of india's socio economic divide i korea sure either r.t. new delhi india. i think that our website r.t. dot com you can always get more in our new stores and peaches here's

3:16 am
direct contrast to expanding public relations industry as newspapers across the country close journalists are being picked up by the p.r. machine not easy christine for his hours when connie outlined the missing journalists might be a threat to democracy is that. the personality of all this is because consultants are the newspaper is like the seattle post intelligencer the rocky mountain news and hundreds more have now become relics from the past. its last budgets have stops the presses at newsrooms nationwide. and mass layoffs throughout media have meant far fewer journalists to investigate policy and procedure who are losing a sense of accountability in government and business in r. r. life lives if we lose journalists who aren't asking questions about what's going on the numbers particularly dramatic with newspapers
3:17 am
where revenue has been cut nearly in half while the journalism industry is shrinking the public relations industry is expanding at one time a one to one ratio between p.r. employees and journalists today that ratio is four to one with p.r. revenues jumping from three point five billion to eight point seven billion dollars journalists are simply overwhelmed by folks who are trying to spin them or trying to create their own story you have the public relations folks inductors if you will driving john nichols along with robert wrote a book about it the death and life of american journalism in a sense we are becoming one of the most propagandized countries in the world short staffed news stations often use company video news releases or v.n. ours like this one if your parents are the first people we need to pee are

reality it rarely works. as you can see there are many forbid in all restricted zones around moscow so it's impossible for us to use notification anywhere within a two hundred kilometer radius of the capital people but the new law dozens of government organisations issue all sorts of contradictory instructions for pilots it's a major disincentive for pilots to make the effort to take to the skies and that means that russia is missing out on the potential plot of gault will some countries like the u.s. get billions of dollars from small aircraft fees and taxes russia doesn't get a cent of the current regulations are in chaos and in a mess we're losing around five hundred billion rubles annually. whatever many pilots like. this year school one air show are optimistic about pointing out the real chrissie. the new low is just the first time. the world is ahead of us could
